2.7 Build**NEW DYNO ADDED**

[M5pilot]

1650 according to my book, that's full aswell.

Even in it's 1650kg state it is quicker than most 2.7's could ever hope to be. It is a fair bit quicker than the Alpina once over 60mph.

I know that a lightweight 3.6 will piss all over a full fat 3.8, so u can maybe see why i am thinking of doing this.

Still a heavy old beast to push through the bends but they are well balanced and have loads of grip.

I hope i dont get my arse kicked too much at pod now

[dazleeds]

mr oz

i feel its time for another update

prepare for the pod matey
im coming to get yaaaaaaa

[reggid]

Lets seriously not get carried away here.

The gug was and is the quickest 2.7 i've been in, i've been in all 3 all cars mentioned. I know theres a bexleys "230bhp monster" but i have never seen it or been in it

Sorry to **** on fires here but well you know

Guggy didn't have no where near as much low end torque as Alpina! Karan witnessed this himself.

But Guggy was certainly fast.

It did have the advantage of very low gearing remember....but it was still a flipping monster.

230 Bexley monster felt fast, put down good 1/4 mile time in wet on BK's.

That's it, Alpina gets 15" bbs's with 205/50 for this race!

so what ET and trapspeed does a 230bhp m20 get?

[Rosc0PColtrane]

ill give ya a race in my nissan micra if ya want??



j.

That's 1 sweet e21

1270 Miles on the clock now, its still getting steadily more rapid as the miles rack up and she losens up.
Gave a Boxster S some serious grief the other week

When are you starting yours then Daz and what spec are you going for?

[dazleeds]

sounds good fella

mine getting started for definate in the next few weeks

going for

eta block
325 head
325 pistons etc
284/272 cam schrick
3 angle on the valves

and more but im as bad as you n cant remember the full spec
but have faith in Iain

will probably get a maf conversion once its on the road to
full remap etc

then as soon as its ready to be hammered i'll be off to the pod for some testing

[Davenotouring]

Good stuff Herr Ozwaldo!

Can't wait to have a play with you (excuse me?) when I get my Civic back.

Dropped it off today...............

[oguz327]

Sounds good Daz, pod is gonna be fun

Not too sure about this new engine Dave, sounds a bit slow

[Andyboy]

And this is where your engine came from! 200'000 miles worth of 525e that I paid £40 for and ran for 3 months until the ECU failed. The engine was removed with a tractor forks..........
The cam was shagged beyond belief but the bores and crank absolutely perfect.
D130ALO's heart beats a lot faster in another car! I still have the logbook for this.

[oguz327]

Hahaha

Is that where the bottom end came from Andy?

[oguz327]

Interesting to see where it came from, even if it was from a complete shitter.

That block certainly did the rounds before i got my paws on it, well saved Andy

[Andyboy]

I took it down to Ant when he was at Lillian Cuntstubble. It was heaved into the back of a rented Golf TDi and deposited a bit of oil on the boot mat which had to be pressure washed clean before it was given back.

Nope, haven't got the V5 (must have sent it back) but still have the service book. Sold new by Milcars in Stanmore - the reg number is very close to Nelly's green Baur.

[oguz327]

The engine, must have been really we serviced or driven very sensibly to have got to 200k and still have a good block no?

What condition was the car in when you got it Andy, i am guessing that pic is after you fragged it?

[Andyboy]

It was a bit of a shed. It did in fact have loads of history but it had one iffy wing, a shock absorber that had lost all it's fluid and a toblerone cam that you could hear 50 miles away. Oh, and the auto box wouldn't engage converter lock up and had an endearing habit of not having any drive - you had to give it a good rev in N or P before it worked.
I bought one new shocker from ECP, changed the cambelt and used it for 3 months. I thought I'd sold the fecker to a mate of Pacerpete's until one morning it failed to start (ECU).
And that was the end of that - but I got more for the engine that I would for the whole car. The bonnet and boot were sold along with the head (good old Ebay) plus I kept the front legs, wheels and tyres, instruments.

I broke it to over £300 in the end!

[e30_Turbo]

Well done Ant!!! ( and OZ! ) A-Tech lays down the law.....N/A stylee this time too!

You'll all hear soon enough what the news is, fecking awesome dude!!!!

[Ant]

Cheers Mark

Massive Thanks to Oz for the trust/confidence he's shown in me on this, as a new start venture as of April last year, A-Tech (me) could have been seen as a gamble with regard to this build.

Pleased with this one, only just done 3K from rebuild and with a higher limiter should see a few more ponies as she loosens up some more.

Big thanks too, to Nigel @ Bexleys for squeezing me in today at very short notice

[stuartgallafant]

thats an amazing bit of poke!!

oguz just called me and creamed down the phone! i think he's happy

well done with this one Ant, its a real credit to you

[e30_Turbo]

Well done OZ too for feeling the faith!

MS and throw the AFM in the bin?

[Theo]

[cliffybabe]

[H35-IAN]

[dazleeds]

looking good

why does the printout say 183mph

[march109]

at BMW E30 325 Ant Built,

Ant you should have stickers made up with that on and put it on the back of the cars instead of Hartge, //M, ect ect.....

[Jhonno]

Good work guys! Thats some decent figures

Anyone reckon it comes on cam bout 3250rpm?

[Andyboy]

Nice, nice work. Still want to do that 3.5 conversion??

My old 525e lives on - and how!

Who's da man???

[kadettc]

I know theres a bexleys "230bhp monster" but i have never seen it or been in it

The Red one? I drove that years ago. Very quick motor!

[racecar]

Stunning result guys! - must be a flying machine!

[miniblob]

Nice one fellas!!!!!! Hope mine goes that well!!!!

[JazzMan]

Very impressive, well done guys

[oguz327]

Very, very pleased with this!

[dazleeds]

Very, very pleased with this!

oy oz

whats with the 183mph on printout

i know she's gonna be quick but not that bloody quick

[toby]

If Oz adds megasquirt to this, as he said he may, this is going to be slightly more powerful still. Ant's 2.5 N/A engine with MS drives really well.

[12345kevin]

Very, very pleased with this!

oy oz

whats with the 183mph on printout

i know she's gonna be quick but not that bloody quick

Thats probably about right for 6114 rpm, no wind resistance don't forget, never achievable on the road
